MACKOY'S BIRTHDAY 2011

An unsuspecting birthday celebrant, Mackoy was "punked" at the OLHRP church on 4-September. The group always have a motiff to wear during our Sunday services. It always serves as a uniform since we really don't have an official uniform (yet!). 

The goal was to make Mackoy were a shirt of a different color so as to make him stand out from the group thus emphasizing that it is his Birthday, that day! It was a success! And we couldn't hide our giggles and chortles during the mass. After the service, we headed to Mr. T's Inasal along McArthur highway for a luncheon courtesy of the birthday boy! 

Of course everyone felt bloated and satisfied after the luncheon. Truly, everyone had a great time, Thanks to Mackoy and co-organizer and Girlfriend, Cocoy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MACKOY! 

KARESSE'S 23rd BIRTHDAY

It was a rainy Saturday night on August 13, 2011. After our weekly FEAST Music Ministry rehearsals, we headed straight to Lim's resort, a private resort just across from where I live to attend a swimming party of birthday girl, Karesse Marzan. 

According to Karesse, every year, when she throws a party on her birthday, her guests always get drenched of the heavy rains and flood so this year, she decided to make it a swimming party so getting wet would not be so much of an issue! Good point!

There were lots of food and booze for everyone! Since most of her guests are singers, a nice sound system set up for videoke was utilized to help liven up the party even more. The singers from the Music Ministry took turns on the microphone and were very much enthused to accommodate any song requests from the crowd!

Unfortunately, only a few MSC members made it to the party. It would have been a major riot (in a good way) if all of her close MSC family were there. =)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KARESSE!!!

God bless you more!

MSC SUMMER OUTING 2011 P7 - DINNER AND ATE BHING'S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

It is Ate Bhing's first time to celebrate her birthday in the Philippines after five years of living in Australia. A few hours before dinner, Mackoy, Cocoy, Tito Oyet and Joy went out to find a store to buy a decent cake for Ate Bhing without her knowledge.  The plan is to throw a surprise birthday party for her.

At dinner time, the group gathered round the long concrete table and called on "unsuspecting" Ate Bhing. Upon seeing the cake I could feel that she was deeply touched! Especially when MSC started to sing her the "Happy Birthday Song" cueing her to make a wish and blow the fire off her birthday candle!    

The surprise birthday celebration for Ate bhing was a success. It was an instant party and the mood was intensely high that night! The food was unmistakenly superb as always. Some instantly geared up for the imminent booze overload that was set up to commence after dinner. While others lined the karaoke machine with party music. I must say that this year's crowd all did their own little ways to make this night a memorable one especially for our birthday girl!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ATE BHING!!!

  

JAYVEE'S BIRTHDAY

Today, 14th of April, is Jayvee's birthday (after hundreds of entries on this site, I think this is the first time I made a birthday blog on the exact date! Whew!).

We had rehearsals just now intended for the coming Palm Sunday (Apr. 17). But the birthday boy was a "no-show"! Apparently the whole team was expecting a large wave of delicious food from Jayvee but it didn't happen tonight. Oh well.

We wish you Happiness and Success on all your endeavors!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAYVEE!!!

God bless you, more!   

JP'S BIRTHDAY

It was just now that I realized how long it has been since my last blog entry. I had a lot of things going on and hadn't the luxury of time to be creative with my outpour of thoughts.

Just recently, MSC President, Jann Paul Cruz celebrated his birthday on the 9th of March. Since he had no time to organize a party for himself, because of his erratic schedule at Crown Plaza Hotel, his choirmates decided to have an after-practice celebration at my place instead. 

Throwing a party may not be always as posh and extravagant... It can be just a simple gathering of loveones celebrating Life! 

Continue to be a blessing to others!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JP!!!

CHEERS!

SPOTTED: NIÑO ZAREN'S 1st BIRTHDAY PARTY

Niño Zaren, unico hijo of soprano Meanne, celebrated his 1st birthday at their place in Paso de Blas, Valenzuela on 12-February, 2011.

It was a party that was attended by many of Meanne and Don's friends. MSC was there too. Sadly, there wasn't as many members who came out to party. Ever loyal and Godfather of Niño Zaren, Tito Boyet and Charles (BASS) were the only ones to come. Nonetheless, according to them, the party was a blast!

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY, NIÑO ZAREN!!!

GOD BLESS YOU!   

COCOY'S BIRHDAY CELEBRATION (HOME VERSION)

A year in the Amorin household would not be complete without a celebration of the birthday of their star in the family, Cocoy! 

On 25-February, MSC was once again invited to partake on the celebration of Cocoy's birthday at their home in Parada, Valenzuela with her family and close friends from work. Of course, as always, there was an abundance of food prepared by Cocoy's loving mom, Tita Nhena. Her siblings, Badek (and husband, Marvin) , Milette (ALTO) and Tony were also present taking turns on the karaoke machine.  

It is always fun being at Cocoy's place and having their family around. They make you feel at home in no time! You could really feel how much they love and respect each other in their own unique way. And it happens all year round, not just during birthdays.

CHEERS!!! 

    

ADIE AND COCOY'S BIRTHDAY BASH 2011

MSC's February Birthday Bashers, Cocoy and Adie had their COMBINED celebration at Mr. T's Inasal along McArthur highway on the evening of 13-Feb, 2011.

Kuya Arnel, Ryan and I arrived a bit late at the venue. Our assigned table was already packed with an overwhelming array of food that Adie took the liberty of ordering for all of us! The other celebrant, Cocoy, had prior engagements that she arrived a bit late that night. There was Chicken Inasal (of course!), Kare-kare, BBQ Liempo, sisig among others! 

  

It was a party well attended by both the younglings and the elders of the group. I was so pleased seeing my group once again happy and at ease with one another, sharing dinner in that one long table. These are definitely those  moments that keep MSC's fire burning!  

CHEERS TO ADIE AND COCOY!

CONGRATULATIONS FOR A VERY NICE AND MEMORABLE PARTY!!!

DOUBLE CELEBRATION

These two drop-dead gorgeous ladies will be celebrating their birthdays together sometime this month. Glady, who celebrates her birthday today, February 4 and Cocoy on the 25th. 

Looking forward for a sumptuous feast with you, guys soon! Im sure it will be memorable.

NIÑO ZAREN'S 1ST BIRTHDAY

See you at the party, little one. Keep growing and growing. God bless you!

GERRY'S BIRTHDAY

There is another reason why we should celebrate this day aside from Easter Sunday... It's Gerry's Birthday!!!

Don't worry, guys, Gerry will be feeding our food mongering tummies during our summer excursion coming real soon! Just be patient, everyone!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GERRY!!!

May you be blessed always as well as your loved ones!!!

JHOANNA'S BIRTHDAY BASH

It was one of those Sundays that I wasn't able to show up for service in church due to a huge hangover I was feeling after entertaining former classmates, the night before. But an eating spree courtesy of a fellow member celebrating her birthday is just too hard to pass off!

The lovely and very talented Jhoanna threw a big birthday luncheon at her place! Lots of food was served, enough to accommodate MSC's BIG APPETITE for sure! Of course a party that involves a group of singers won't be complete without Karaoke!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JHOANNA! 

Thank you for your love and service for MSC!

May you be blessed abundantly!   

JAYPEE'S DAY

Another one of the younglings of MSC recently celebrated his birthday on the 9th of March...

Certainly, these younglings are verging on becoming real adults in the group in no time at all! Soon, all the veterans will be run over by these future MSC leaders!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAYPEE!!!

God bless you and may you find in your heart the true meaning of service and committment the same way your seniors discovered it, themselves!!! May you be successful on all your endeavors!

HIDING TITA

I wonder where Ate Lulu is right now! After weeks and weeks of not showing up during the masses and practices, Im starting to get worried and paranoid...

She used to be one of the most active members of MSC. She not only participates within the group but outside as well serving as our emmisary and ambassador of  goodwill to the other choral organizations under our parish. Things changed quite a bit the time she was blessed with Julliana, her daughter...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TITA LULU!!! 

You may not be always present but I know for sure that you always keep MSC in your heart nad mind!

We miss you!

(My apologies for I couldn't find a solo photo of Tita Lulu in my files.)

MSC-- DAMPA @ FARMERS REVISITED

(Odessa, Adie and Cocoy, birthday girls)

On a very warm Sunday morning, 21st of February came the very first fun-filled trip of MSC. The members were in high spirits after our service! On board a Kia Van, MSC went straight to the ever famous Dampa @ Farmer's Market in Cubao, Quezon City. This trip was intended to celebrate the birthdays of three lovely ladies of MSC namely Odessa Oba (Alto), Glady Mendiola (Soprano) and MSC President, Analyn Amorin all celebrants of February.

As always, we rented a function room with a Karaoke machine for entertainment while the elders of the group (including me) buy our ingredients from the market then have a resto in that area cook them for us. The event was a full house and everyone enjoyed.

It was a great day.

Thank you, celebrants for the wonderful and memorable treat!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ODESSA

February 11 was a special day for O-de! It was her 24th birthday! How time flies when till now, I could still remember hanging out at their family compound (Tatay Boyet's place as well) and seeing her running along their wide expanse of concrete space in her underwear (no pun intended)!!! HAHA! Or was she wearing one??

But now, the little girl with her signature adorable, big cheeks has truly become one great, talented woman!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ODESSA!!!

But it doesn't end there. On February 21, MSC will be celebrating her birthday at Dampa, Farmers Market in Cubao along with the other February Birthday Celebrants! The cheesy details about that trip... soon.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GLADY!

Glady, MSC's newest public relations officer celebrated her birthday on the 4th of February. We look forward for your grand birthday bash on the 21st along with our other members who will be celebrating with you this month!

BEST WISHES TO YOU!

MAY YOU BE BLESSED ALWAYS!

HAPPY HARUN'S DAY!

Sunday... typhoon's left Manila (but not yet in the provinces, sigh...), but it is not reason for us not to celebrate a special day of one of our colleagues.

It's Harun's Birthday! That is why right after the usual practice, MSC headed straight to SM Hypermarket in Valenzuela to have a nice meal at Mang Inasal (present MSC fave lunch spot).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARUN!

GOD BLESS YOU!
